Kentucky Woman Passed through the place of my birth, Elizabethtown, on my way to the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs. Drove into Louisville and headed for the old part of town where I lived as a child next to Churchill Downs. Pulled over at my old address, Seven O Five Dresden Avenue, and to my surprise thats when I met you. You charged me five kisses to park in front of your place, from there it was only a hop, skip and a jump from the race. I knew that I was living in grace, when this blue grass beauty said she was taking me to the race. You see, there's a few things that previous experience have taught me. Kentucky women are excellent cooks and they make darn good company. JamesLee March11 2004 Margaret my love, I miss you. You know I do. |

This is lovely and sounds like a ballad. So there is a Margaret in your life ... I bet she is a pearl as her name says and as you describe her! Love, Margherita |

Would you believe me if I said that I hailed from Kentucky? ~ No? ~ Gosh, I should have known that there would be no fooling you about women ~ or "angels"! Warm hugs 'n smiles, EA |
